I got another report of a similar problem using jfs on the root
partition with a recent kernel, but didn't get much more information.
I'm on vacation until July 13th, so I won't have the chance to try jfs
as a root partition until I'm back.  As far as I know there have been no
problems with jfs on non-root partitions.  I use it myself on the latest
Linus & -mm kernels all the time, but I don't have it on my root
partition.k
